贴一下他的回信：
Very good!  I had to look up the definition of choleric-  seems like a good
word for me to know.   Although it was  slightly misused in this case, that
is forgiven.  Thanks.
Sincerely,  Professor Jones
PS:  I think most American Professors become choleric when it comes to the d
aily deluge of SPAM.  In most cases, they just hit “DELETE”
Maybe I should do that in the future.
PSS:  Here is some advice.  Decide what you want to do, first.  Research it
carefully and focus on one, or at most, two professors with whom you want to
work with.  Put all your energy into that one Professor rather than the “c
ast a broad net” approach to hope you “catch” someone willing to let you
in (if they are caught, they will soon feel like they are fried and eaten).
I get so many disingenuous messages from young Chinese students each day wh
o tell me that they are really really really  interested in my research and
want to work in my lab.  It does not take me long to find out that they have
not even read my papers and have no idea of what I do.  That makes me chole
ric.  No one likes to feel duped.
PSSS:  The widespread cheating for GRE and TOEFL exams has indeed been docum
ented.  It is now a proven fact that it is widespread and a serious problem.
  I am sure, however, that YOU are not one of the cheaters.  Good luck at Jo
hns Hopkins.
PSSS:  I have 5 very good Chinese postdocs in my lab.  I am not prejudice an
d I get my information from the source about China and the means by which Ch
inese students try to make it to the US


底下是原作者发的信，误把给JOHNS HOPKINS的信发到了UNC的教授那里

给a校教授发信说我要申请b校
下面是他的回信

Dear :

If you want to apply to John’s Hopkins University so badly, then why are yo
u sending me this message.  You say you are “so interested in my program”
but I have a feeling that you don’t even know what my laboratory does.  You
obviously don’t know what university I work at.

Please do not send anymore SPAM.  There are already many other Chinese appli
cants that deserve our attention.

Sincerely, Professor “FILL IN THE BLANK”

PS:   because of the widespread cheating in China, most US University admiss
ions committees no longer consider the GRE scores for Chinese applicants.   
You can thank your peers for that.

前面的话我认了，是我愚蠢所致，但最后一句我觉得很悲哀，我们的形象已经变成
widespread cheating!!!
